Baking Odyssey

This weekend I mixed and measured and rolled and dropped and baked and decorated cookies.  For most of 2 days.  I can haz rest, now?  Last year my taste buds were off and I didn't take much pleasure from cookie-eating.  It was so sad.  But much better for my waistline.  This year, I'm in trouble.  The cookies taste WONDERFUL and I spend most of the day sampling.  Most of the batches are in the freezer, but frosted sugar cookies don't freeze well, so they're out and now they must be eaten.  *sigh*  Life is rough, eh? 

I was so tired last night, I felt all achy and was worried I was coming down with something.  But I was fine today, so I think this getting old stuff is for the birds.  Apparently I was just sore from standing and frosting and such.  This is the earliest I've ever been done with my Christmas baking, so I'm feeling all relaxed and accomplished.  I am going to make one more double batch of persimmon cookies because I have the persimmons, so I might as well, but those are easy to make.  Now to wrap the presents after the grandboys leave tomorrow, and I am DONE and ready for Santa!  Bring it on, big guy!
